whats wrong with Joe ?
They drafted a RB, one of the easiest positions to transition from college to the NFL and had to redshirt him because he's a space cadet, showed up to OTA's completely out of shape and got worked by an undrafted RB, struggled with pass blocking and holding on to the football.
His career has not started off on a very high note.
Yup plus he quit in college also. So there were warnings.
So his reasons for quitting in college were not valid?
Sure, but he still quit. I feel bad for em but doesn't mean he makes a good player for the team
.
Dudes like Goodwin lost his baby and still played that week and became better because of it. That is what we should be looking for. High charachter and mentally tough. Not the ones who pack it up and go home.
Goodwin is an outlier tho
There are plenty of examples of guys who overcome tragedies in the league, college, high school and more.
Even if outliers, as management, those are the kinds of outliers you want on your team. You can go far with a team full of Goodwins. With guys like Foster and Williams, its harder.
